Swindon's main draw is the STEAM Museum — it's genuinely worth a visit for the working locomotives and the scale of the old Great Western Railway works. Beyond that, the Mechanics' Institute is an architectural curiosity, Museum & Art Swindon has a respectable local collection, and the Magic Roundabout is worth five minutes of bewildered staring. The Wyvern Theatre hosts touring shows if you're in town for the evening.
